Abstract

Objectives: Identify the incidence of delirium in awake patients who receive primary prophylaxis during mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit in the Palermo Clinic, Bogota- Colombia. Methodology: Prospective cohort study. This study explored the relationship of delirium with primary prophylaxis, medical illness and personal history The sam­ple size (n = 102) was calculated by taking into account the traced frequency of awake patients on mechanical ventila­tion with an average hospital stay of 7 days univariate, bivariate, and multivariate statistical analyses. Results: Delirium was presented in 8 out of 102 patients (22 %) significant differences were noted between those who raved and those who did not rave for age and Marshall. Significant relationships among delirium Apache, Tiss 28, and Marshall were not proven via logistic regression. Conclusions: Advance age (over 60 years old) is a predisposing factor for the presence of delirium as well as smoking history. The medication administration in the primary prophylaxis did not show any associa­tion with the absence of delirium in awake patients on mechanical ventilation in the ICU.
